PPER SANDUSKY, tlie county seat of Wyandot County, the home of the 
Wyandot Indians who gave it this name, is on the west hank of the Sandusky 
river, sixty-three miles north of Columhus. at the crossing of the Pennsylvania 
and Hocking V alley Railroads. 

Since the dawn of the nineteenth century this Indian V Jlage has heen a spot 
or great historical inetrest. Within a tew miles of this village is -where Colonel 
Crawford, in June, 1782, met his defeat and was subsequently hurned at the stake. 
Here, General Harrison, during the -war of 1812, huilt Fort Ferree, which was 
visited hy Charles Dickens in 1842. The noted spring is still quenching the thirst of many visitors 
who visit the crystal fountain. 

Here also was built the first Protestant Mission in America hy the Methodists in 1824, -which 
is visited hy tourists from all parts of the world. Within the shade of the sacred walls of this 
inspiring shrine lie buried the dead NWyandots -who worshiped there when Between-the-Logs. 
Mononcue and other celebrated Wyandot Indians- .proclaimed the Gospel of "The Christ of Them. 
Here also was the largest tree east of the Rockies.,."" 

Upper Sandusky is not only noted for its past history. It is noted for its beautiful wide streets 
which are shaded by majestic maple and elm trees, its magnificent public buildings, elegant fountain, 
well-kept lawns and beautiful modern homes. It has two daily newspapers which would be a cred.t 
to a much larger city. Three substantial banks, three good hotels, nine churches, three public 
schools, one parochial school, many good manufacturing plants and places of business, excellent ship- 
ping facilities, being in direct line to Chicago, Pittsburg, Columbus and Toledo.
